Just finding an old post from Sid at Attivio regarding our research on Findability from 2 years ago. Great troubleshooting advice on findability - part 1 of 2 articles.
2 years later, and we're still getting traction on our definition of Enterprise 2.0. As I've said before, an overnight sensation doesn't happen overnight.
"A system of web-based technologies that provide rapid and agile collaboration, information sharing, emergence and integration capabilities in the extended enterprise".
(Enterprise 2.0 defined by Carl Frappaolo and Dan Keldsen of Information Architected in a report written for Association for Information and Image Management (AIIM))
The Bangkok Post Business section picked up on our Innovation Management research, and used a few of the findings to kick off an article on Innovation.
"INNOVATION: ARE YOU TALKING THE WALK OR WALKING THE TALK?
These days, it's impossible to read the business news without finding articles referring to the world of innovation. Companies proclaim they will grow faster than their competitors because they are going to innovate better products.
Self-proclaimed "innovation experts", who in the past sold marketing, benchmarking and Six Sigma as the "one and only way to heaven", have recently jumped on the innovation train. They are now bombarding audiences with shallow articles and low-value talks full of innovation buzzwords, from "out-of-the-box" and "disruptive" to "cutting-edge" and "breakthrough".
Public sector agencies organise conferences and events where the concept of the Creative Economy is rightfully celebrated, but without success lessons being effectively adopted and translated into meaningful policies.
Yes, there's a lot of talk about creativity and innovation. But what about the actual process of innovation itself?
A new global innovation survey conducted by Information Architected Inc, found that 17 out of 20 managers agree that innovation management is critical to their firm's business success. Yet 51% of the companies participating in the survey have no formalised innovation management practice. Half of the participating managers said the lack of a systematic innovation process was the biggest impediment to managing innovation, followed by a lack of innovation resources, leadership and adequate funding. Moreover, 7 out of 10 respondents said the downturn has raised the need to actively manage innovation; but only 24% of firms have done anything specific to manage innovation in the last two years.
So how about your company? Do you still only talk about how important innovation is for your business and how much you are going to innovate soon? Or do you already walk the walk and do what it takes to
A reference to our 2.0 Adoption research - Resistance is Real (and always has been, BTW)
"As Enterprise 2.0 and social business technologies work their way through the Hype Cycle, the resistance to change understandably receives more attentions. A 2.0 Adoption Council study proclaims “Resistance is Real”. Culture has always been on the radar screen, now it’s right into the practitioner’s face again."
Good to see that our work is getting wider play - above and beyond the keynote we had done live at the Enterprise 2.0 Conference in San Francisco. Stay tuned for more on this research.
"It should not surprise us that the top issue is resistance to change. Readers of this blog know that business projects of every kind suffer from issues related to poor communication, conflicting agendas across information silos, and related organizational causes of failure.
A recent study from Information Architected and The 2.0 Adoption Council also describes resistance to change as the significant barrier. This compelling slide clearly summarizes that message..."
From Mark Logic's CEO Dave Kellogg (an utterly hilarious guy and extremely smart fellow):
"Is Information Architected for Smart Delivery?
Check out this post by Carl Frappaolo, author of several books on knowledge management and co-founder of consultancy Information Architected, Inc., which he recently created with long-time colleague Dan Keldsen.
The post, entitled Is Information Architected for Smart Distribution? Survey Says Not Yet, discusses some recent research done by Carl and makes many analogies between enterprise content management and, of all things, the movie business."
From Ric Roberts' blog RichText, a mention of Enterprise 2.0 and our research (when still with AIIM as the Market Intelligence arm), in the context of an event in the UK called Startup 2.0.
"In May 2006, Andrew McAfee of Harvard defined Enterprise 2.0 as “the use of emergent social software platforms within companies, or between companies and their partners or customers”. More recently Carl Frappaolo and Dan Keldsen redefined it as “A system of web-based technologies that provide rapid and agile collaboration, information sharing, emergence and integration capabilities in the extended enterprise.”"
Quick read - interesting summarization.
"BTW - those of you using the Kindle - according to the latest research on Content Delivery, which I should be publishing next week, you are indeed part of a select few, in a corporate setting anyway. The research found that the use of multimedia content, and the re-purposing of content in creative new ways within the firewall lags far behind the Internet. Stay tuned ..."
Still can't believe that Carl's blog was published on Kindle before me. Ironically, I submitted the paperwork to be compensated for the publishing of my blog, almost a year ago. Carl did not, and he beat me to the punch. Still took almost a year for them to add him, however.
Anyone can fire up a cloud-based infinite amount of storage, elastic computing power, etc., via Amazon, but it takes a year (or more) to pull a blog onto the Kindle store? Wow, process, process, process - I smell a need for some automation.
AIIM lost two key executives this week when Carl Frappaolo, former VP of Market Intelligence, and Dan Keldsen, former director of market intelligence, both left the organization to form their own consulting firm called Information Architected, Inc. The new company looks at the intelligent use of content, knowledge and business processes. The company offers a range of services including education, strategic consulting, ROI studies and market research. See the company's website for more information.

Seth Grimes covers our Market IQ on Findability, summing up 'the bottom line, that it takes more than Search technology to achieve findability' - great example embedded as well. Thanks Seth!
Written by Mark Hall. Nice coverage by Mark on the early glimpses of our Market IQ on Findability. He has a bit of fun with our findings on findability. Kindred spirit it seems! Thanks Mark.
Ron Miller has a great synthesis of our Findings on Findability and commentary from Carl Frappaolo and myself. Sue Feldman of IDC, however, jumped the gun and clairvoyantly (and inaccurately) predicts what the full report will contain WHEN RELEASED NEXT M
Written by Brian Jackson - Brian has picked up on a different angle from our early Findings on Findability. Worth a read, and thanks for the coverage Brian.
Deeper dive into our forthcoming Findings on Findability. Chris Lynch interviewed Carl Frappaolo to peel beneath our initially shocking findings. Thanks for the coverage Chris.
